We'd like to show groups in a very specific order, not in the order displayed when we group by default.

I.e. assume we have 4 groups.  "Beam", "Advanced", "No beam" and "Hefty".  By default when grouped these would show up in the grid in the order

Advanced
Beam
Hefty
No Beam

We'd like this to be in the order of

Beam
No Beam
Hefty
Advanced

Is there a way to accommodate this?  For instance, maybe group by a different value (that is alphanumeric) and then show the text for the group from another property on our objects?

Hello, Chris,     

By default, when you perform grouping, RadGridView sorts the created group rows alphabetically. This article demonstrates how to customize the groups sort order: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/gridview/grouping/sorting-group-rows

I hope this information helps. If you have any additional questions, please let me know.  
 
Regards,
Dess
